    Hotels require a vastly more dense plumbing structure, I don’t think it’s easy or cheap to retrofit onto an office building.

      Hotels with dorm like shower systens maybe could work. I think something like a hostel.

      That being said you cant charge much when you are forcing customers to share bathrooms.

        Well, shared bathroom means zero stars so yeah, you basically can’t call it a hotel anymore.

        Offices are different in the fact that they have way more interior space far away from windows as well.

        That’s generally going to be a hard sell, not to mention against zoning codes in many cases.
